The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, indicating it was part of a document production for a congressional investigation.

This document appears to be page 2 of a report titled 'Breaking Down Democracy,' produced as part of a House Oversight investigation (Bates stamp HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019236). It analyzes the decline of freedom in influential countries between 2007 and 2016, highlighting significant drops in Turkey and Bahrain. The text discusses strategies used by modern authoritarians, including the rewriting of history (specifically in Russia regarding Stalin), the hiring of Western lobbyists ('K Street representatives') by autocracies like China and Kazakhstan, and the emulation of authoritarian tactics by populist politicians in democracies.
This document is a geopolitical briefing paper dated June 19, 2017, arguing that the People's Republic of China intends to assimilate Mongolia through asymmetrical warfare and 'voluntary' referendum, similar to Russia's annexation of Crimea.

The text includes historical footnotes referencing 1956 Soviet-Chinese negotiations and a 1989 conversation between Deng Xiaoping and George H.W. Bush to support the claim that China views Mongolia as lost territory.
